ed. The firing was immediately
across the track of the Western and
Atlantic railroad.
Two miles south of Ringgold is
Greenwood Water Tank, where the
freight trains, and occasionally the
passenger trains of the Western and
Atlantic railroad stop for water. In
sight of this little flag station, on the
east, is the residence of Mr. Sanford
L. Bell, who has been an employe of
the Western and Atlantic railroad for
thirty-four years, and whose face as a
conductor has been familiar to travel
ers through this sunny land for many
years past.
The other stations in the valley are
Chickamauga, twelve miles south of
Chattanooga, and Boyce, midway be
tween the two. At Chickamauga is a
quarry of the finest blue limestone for
building purposes which is found in the
South. Boyce is the point of junction
of the Western and Atlantic railroad
and the Cincinnati Southern railway.
These two great trunk lines here con
nect their rails and interchange prac
tically all of their bulk business.
This valley will always be a favorite
spot for the tourist, as well as for the
health-seeker or happy inhabitant.
The halo of historic glory hangs over
its past, and the bright sky of pros
perity not only now smiles above it,
but, doubtless, in the future will al
ways be radiant with the bow of prom
ise.
Two Important Essays.
The Atlanta school boy thus dis
courses on the red snapper and the
goat:
THE RED SNAPPER.
The red snapper is the only anny
mal that ain’t got no neck, there ain’t
but one kind of a fish in the World
that lives on the land and Flys round
in the air, and that is a fish hawk. A
red snapper has a large mouth and my
Sunday school teacher’s got a large
mouth too. Two kids got filein in the
vestry one day and one of em pulled a
lot of Hare out of the other kid’s
Hed and the Superintending pounded
one of his Eeers with a book and
so they quit. A fish would look fun
ny if they had legs and could run.
THE GOAT.
The goat is a savage Beast when
they g<t mad and it is dangerous Biz
nis to try to bury a goat up in the
leaves, when a goat is Ded it is well
Enuff to have fun with him. Six of
us couldn t cuvver a goat up with
leaves and Jimmy Smith couldn’t go
to school for a long time and then the
goat butted an other feller till he
couldn’t get up and couldn’t holler,
and the doctor had to come and cure
him. Some boys give a gote some
corne in a pale and put in a lot of tor
pedos and the gote didn’t eat but a few
for his jaw got blowed oft and he run
off down on tan yard branch and nev
er et any more and died, ihe gote
that perfumes the man that can’t walk
at the corner of the postoffice will
never dye though.
Only via the Western and Atlantic
railroad can you get to the healthiest
county in Georgia, if not in America.
The Western and Atlantic railroad
runs more passenger trains over the
same rails than any other railroad in
the South.

“What is soul food?” inquires a
constant reader in one of our religious
exchanges. Soul food is what keeps
an editor fat when he tries to publish
a newspaper according to his honest
convictions.

fellow Smith.” “Why?” “ Well, |
sometime ago I asked him to lend me
$10.” “ And he refused you ? ” ‘‘Oh,
no; he let me have the money, and
that’s why I am dodging him.”

“Here, Mary, come to the window.
Who is that man up in our walnut

see, he has shaken everyone of them
off, and saved us so much trouble.”
